"What's My Hometown?" GAME - ROUND 5 (ends Thu 2/5 12am NST)

[Miyu]

I just realized my pm box was full - so that might've had something to do with it.
It could just be the PPT being silly.
Lately, if I post and it times out, or something. When I refresh - it tells me that there is a new post and I should review mine before posting. The new post is always my own. Silly silly. xD

[Evil Stu Man]

Yes I have tried again but it still not working. Ya know what I give in. If there is any other way I woul appreciate it but ppt is dying a slow and painful death.

[Miyu]

You can email them to me if you wish.

Ah, no fair. I thought you'd put up the answers when I saw the topic had been bumped. Are you still waiting for more answers since PPT's still been a little buggy?

[Miyu]

o.O

I posted the answers and results shortly after nine.
When I hit the submit button, it did what it has done before - like timed out or something. So, instead of refreshing and getting the usual 'there was a post while you were posting, review blah blah'. I just went straight to the index page, and saw that it notified that I'd made a new post in the topic. I didn't think I'd actually need to see for myself to verify it went through, since it has done it so many times lately.
*smacks PPT*

But he was innocent! He really didn't kill his wife... at least not in the book. They found the real killer and kept him in jail, which is why he had to

chisel his way out using a little gem hammer.

Hey, Stu, I have 2 questions for #10.

How close is very close? And how famous is famous (is it in, say, the top 5 most famous railways in your country)?

[Evil Stu Man]

Here are your answers

Close would be 3 train stations away. Famous because it is a major tourist attraction in Melbourne.

[Siniri]

Ah, thanks Stu. Not the one I was thinking of, but I think I've got the right one now.

[pipsqueeek]

Oh shoot, this ends at 5? I could've sworn it was later. Looks like I might not be getting anything in this round =/

[Siniri]

No, Stu said 10pm -- I copied it wrong in the first post. I'll go fix it right now. Get clue-cracking!

ETA: Fixed, and sorry for the mistake!

[pipsqueeek]

Ah okay, good. I was *sure* I'd have time to look when I got home... good to know I'm not going crazy(or at least crazier)

[Evil Stu Man]

Just need a few more ppl to send in their answers then I will post up the results.

[Siniri]

It seems like several people haven't been answering for several rounds now, so they might never answer. How many more are you waiting for, Stu?

Mate, You are the only one who has answered. Mongrel, DM, and Pip haven't. Idon't think it would be fair on the others if I posted up the answers and Pip looks like he will submit them to me. So as soon as pip submits I will post the answers.

By the way. How do I calculate the scores?
